But their smiles were fearfully contorted from time to time; and their laughter passed into such wild sounds as made my gudesire's very nails grow blue, and chilled the marrow in his banes. They that waited at the table were just the wicked serving-men and troopers that had done their work and cruel bidding on earth.
Westburnflat hasna the means, e'en if he had the will, to make up our loss; there's nae mends to be got out o' him, but what ye take out o' his banes. He hasna a four-footed creature but the vicious blood thing he rides on, and that's sair trash'd wi' his night wark. We are ruined stoop and roop."
No interruption was offered to his speech, even by the King, though the latter turned pale as these terrible coming events were shadowed forth before him. "His words are awsome," he muttered, "and gar the flesh creep on our banes. Will nane o' ye stap his tongue?"
Now, if ye let me stay quietly here the night wi' the Captain, I'se pay ye double fees for the room; and if ye say no, ye shall hae the best sark-fu' o' sair banes that ever ye had in your life the first time ye set a foot by Liddel Moat!
"Exactly," said Sir Humphrey, and the brothers walked back to where their would-be ally stood waiting patiently, and Captain Banes was giving vent to his annoyance by growling at both mates in turn, and then at the men for not being smarter over getting up the cask. "Captain Banes," said Sir Humphrey. "Sir to you," growled the captain.
Ye little rin-there-out deil that ye are, what takes you raking through the gutters to see folk hangit? how wad ye like when it comes to be your ain chance, as I winna ensure ye, if ye dinna mend your manners? And what are ye maundering and greeting for, as if a word were breaking your banes?
"But I'm not the sort of man for you at all, gentlemen." "A man does not know himself so well as others know him," said Sir Humphrey, smiling. "Captain Banes, I shall be sorry if we do not come to terms, for I believe we should soon become firm friends." "Well, I've some such idea as that, gentlemen," said the captain. "Think it over for a couple of days, Captain Banes," said Sir Humphrey.
There was the Bluidy Advocate MacKenyie, who, for his worldly wit and wisdom had been to the rest as a god. But their smiles were fearfully contorted from time to time; and their laugh passed into such wild sounds as made my gudesire's very nails grow blue, and chilled the marrow in his banes.
Ribera, lib. i. ch. iv., says he heard Fra Banes, in a sermon, say that the Saint told him she had, during these four days, seen hell in a vision. The Great Debt She Owed to Our Lord for His Mercy to Her. She Takes St. Joseph for Her Patron. After those four days, during which I was insensible, so great was my distress, that our Lord alone knoweth the intolerable sufferings I endured.
And mair than a' that, if ye prove fause-hearted, I'll choke ye wi' this windin-sheet, and fling ye owre my shouther, and carry ye to Arangask kirkyard, and gie ye to the witches, to pick your banes ahint the aisle, afore ye get leave to gang aff the earth." Having uttered this terrible malediction, it shook its winding-sheet, and then waved the candle round its head.
